Hi,
I am trying to configure vfc in storage vdc on n7k, but getting some errors. I would be grateful if you could support me and let me know what is required to make it working. Thank you.
DEFAULT VDC-CONFIG:
============================================
vdc N7KA-vdc1 id 1
limit-resource module-type f1
cpu-share 5
allocate interface Ethernet4/1-4
!
vdc storage id 4 type storage
limit-resource module-type f1
allow feature-set fcoe
!
vdc storage id 4
allocate fcoe-vlan-range 100 from vdcs N7KA-vdc1
allocate shared interface Ethernet4/1-4
STORAGE VDC-CONFIG:
!============================================
vlan 1,100
vlan 100
fcoe vsan 100
!
vsan database
vsan 100
!
interface Ethernet4/1
no shutdown
!============================================
Now when I first create VFC and configure it as E, I cannot bind it to interface:
storage(config)# int vfc1
storage(config-if)# switchport mode e
storage(config-if)# bind int e4/1
ERROR: fcoe_mgr: VFC not bound (err_id 0x42070009)
When I do it in the opposite order, I am getting error as well:
storage(config)# int vfc1
storage(config-if)# bind int e4/1
storage(config-if)# switchport mode e
vfc1: (error) configuration of this port mode not allowed
Can you advise if there is any limitation (I got the same issue on N7K-F132XP-15 & N7K-F248XP-25E, I am running n7000-s2-dk9.6.2.8a.bin) or config change required to make it working?
Maybe is it related with dedicated/shared interfaces:
N7KA-vdc1(config-if)# sh int e4/1
Ethernet4/1 is up
admin state is up, Dedicated(Shared) Interface
!
storage# sh int e4/1
Ethernet4/1 is up
admin state is up, Shared Interface
If so, how to change it (when I tried to change it in Eth VDC I am getting info that rate-mode is fixed, when I apply it on storage vdc, it looks like command is not accepted - i.e. it is not in the config).
Thank you,
